ZANU PF Staff members have wished their Secretary General, Cde Advocate Jacob Mudenda, a belated happy birthday.

In a ceremony held this morning, Cde Mudenda took time to thank God for the gift of life.

"They say age is a number. What I can tell you is that I am a young old man. I want to thank all of you who have contributed to this thoughtful and kind gesture," Advocate Mudenda said.

"Ndiri Mazvimbakupa asi ndapihwa. Ndinotenda. siyabonga lingadinwa lakusasa."

He said on such an occasion, the centre of attraction in his tradition would be to give thanks first to God because he is supplier of life. He added that of all the people he grew up and learnt with, only a few are still alive.
